Greetings Warren Band Students and Parents, Here are some updates and reminders for the week of Sept 28, 2015 (please make sure you read all items so nothing is missed): 1) Warren Band Spiritwear Sale Mixup During the recent WTHS Band Student/Parent Spiritwear sale (Delivered starting Friday - Sept 18) there was a mixup. One family ordered a men's jacket, but came forward because they received a women's jacket instead. Per our vendor, it is likely that another band family ordered a women's jacket, but mistakenly received a men's jacket. Please check your orders to make sure you received the correct items. If you mistakenly received a men's jacket from this order, please reply to this email as soon as possible so we can get the correct items to the appropriate families. Thank you! 2) Tuesday Night Band Practice (Tonight! - Sept 29) Time: 6 to 9 PM Location: WTHS O'Plaine campus 3) Upcoming Schedule Reminder Band Rehearsals - Starting this week, we will have two weeks with Tuesday night rehearsals (September 29 and October 6).
